Let's start with the premise itself: Groundhog Day meets Memento. The game experience revolves around 'days': you explore the world and the clock slowly ticks towards the evening. You bounce around picking up gems and talking to the denizens of 'Level Upland'. Eventually you feel tired and head back to ...

For those who are interested in areas not well covered by Yahoo Maps, Panoramio can be an alternative.
In Panoramio you can locate your photos via drag and drop interface using Google Maps. You also can watch the photos in Google Earth through KML feed.

I've detailed how the geotag information (longitude and latitude values) can be found at my blog entry on the subject as well:
